Chapter 12 Dream Wheel Chapter 3
Chapter 12 Dream Wheel Chapter 3
In the early morning of the second day, Gu Xiyong did not wait for the fox demon Qi Jin, but instead waited for Zhiyue, the little girl who came to Qi's mansion.
Zhiyue is Qi Nianyao's personal servant girl, she is only fifteen or sixteen years old this year, wearing light-colored clothes, she is as green as an unripe fruit.
"Master Gu, this is a gift from my lady. This is Liufangzhai's snacks. The lady specially sent someone to buy it. I am afraid that the private school will start early and you will not be able to catch up with breakfast." The little maid handed over a purse with one hand, and the other Holding a food box, keeping his head down, he spoke extremely fast, and even stuttered shyly.
"Tell Miss Qi for me that Gu likes it very much, thank her very much." Gu Xiyong took the things and said with a smile.
The little maid Zhiyue saluted in a flustered manner, then turned her head and ran away.
Gu Xiyong held a purse in one hand and snacks in the other, not knowing what to say.
It is true that Gu Xiyong never had breakfast, so he hastily put a few snacks on and went to the private school for class.He didn't sleep well last night, so he got up a little late, and the little maid Zhiyue was delayed for a while, so he arrived at the private school much later than usual.
In another three or four months, they will go to Beijing to take the exam, and the private schools here have nothing to teach them.The teacher and Gu Xiyong are both candidates, and they will go to Beijing to catch the exam in a few days.Most of the students who go to school here are young children and scholars, only Gu Xiyong is a Juren.
It is said to be learning, but I often come to discuss knowledge with the teacher, learn from each other, and occasionally help teach the children.
When it was almost evening, the teacher called Gu Xiyong and told him that he would not come back from tomorrow.
"You are also a person who is about to go to Beijing to catch the exam. Why don't you study more at home and don't have to come to me to help me teach the children. Your own future is more important. I will close the private school in a few days. If you concentrate on studying, you don't have to Come." The teacher said.
It was indeed time, and Gu Xiyong did not refuse. Going to Beijing to catch the exam was a top priority, so he didn't dare to delay, so he borrowed a few books he wanted to read from the teacher and went home early.
Before entering the room, I could smell the sweet fragrance.Gu Xiyong's heart moved, and he hurriedly opened the door, and saw Qi Jin dozing off in front of the small round table in a red dress.
There is a plate of ready-made plum blossom cakes on the small round table, and a pink candied plum blossom is topped on the white and tender cakes, which looks very delicious.
Gu Xiyong secretly picked one up and put it in his mouth, it melted in his mouth, leaving a fragrance on his lips and teeth, just about to take the second one, but someone stopped him.
"Who said it was for you!" Qi Jin gave Gu Xiyong a hard look, but the fox clan was born to be charming, and that look was full of charms, and it had no effect at all. "Miss Qi's family brought you food and purses early in the morning. You don't care about my ideas."
"Why don't you be rare? I am rare." Gu Xiyong sat across from Qi Jin, his eyes were full of red-clothed fox demons, and he took another piece of plum cake. "Did you do this yourself?"
"Of course it is. Uh...cough cough..." Qi Jin said a little uncomfortably, "I did it, but I didn't have the materials, so I used...the things in your kitchen."
"Since you want to repay your kindness, why don't you leave it for me to make plum cakes for January." Gu Xiyong said after thinking about it.
This fox demon disappears at every turn, so it's better to find an excuse to stay.
"You're so beautiful!" The fox demon Qi Jin glanced at him, those eyes were very seductive, turned around and rolled back onto the bed, "Unless you leave me to sleep on this bed."
Gu Xiyong didn't know why this fox demon had such a deep obsession with this bed, anyway, Zuo just slept in the same bed, they were both men, so it didn't matter if they shared a bed, so he nodded in agreement.
The fox demon was very happy to get the permission, and immediately changed back to his original body, rolling and having fun on the bed, not treating himself as an outsider at all.
But he thought too much, Gu Xiyong helped his forehead, it's fine for two men to sleep in the same bed, let alone one person and one fox.
After eating some snacks, Gu Xiyong continued to read in the room.Next spring, I will go to Beijing to catch up for the exam. I don’t have much time, so I will feel more at ease if I can watch it for a while.
The fox demon Qi Jin had fun on the bed for a long time, the room was not as cold as his cave on the mountain, the bed was big and soft, very comfortable.Lifting off the quilt, the quilt had just been dried in the sun yesterday, and there was a smell of the sun, Qi Jin immediately felt drowsy, terribly sleepy.
Yet it always feels like something is missing.
"Hey, scholar, come and sleep."
There should be one less person to hug, Qi Jin thought to himself.That day when he woke up, he felt that his whole body was smooth, and he slept very soundly. He hadn't slept so comfortably in more than 100 years.
Gu Xiyong was reading seriously, and was taken aback by Qi Jin, looking helplessly at the red fox on the bed.
The fox didn't think he was too much, lying on the bed and looking back at the scholar, as if he suddenly remembered something, jumped from the bed to the small round table, and then jumped from the small round table to Gu Xiyong's arms.
"I forgot to ask, what's your name?"
It turned out that I had known him for so many days and didn't even know his name.Gu Xiyong rubbed the fox's little head, the fox was rubbed very comfortably, the little head rubbed against the scholar's chest, like a coquettish child.
"My name is Gu Xiyong, which comes from Zhenlu Yufei and Yu Bixiyong."
Gu Xiyong replied without thinking.
"Sounds very cultured, but I don't understand." The fox flicked its tail and pointed its butt at the scholar, seeming a little unhappy, "I was born with parents but not raised by them. I have been used to it since I was a child. I never knew the knowledge of you mortals."
He sighed pretendingly, "It's good to have a name, what more knowledge is needed."
Two lamps were lit on the desk, and the candles flickered when the fox flicked its tail. The dim yellow lights against the fiery red fur made it look more gorgeous.
"It's good for you to do this." Gu Xiyong gave the fox a smooth hair, as if he was coaxing him. "Better than anyone."
"Then why don't you come and sleep with me!" The fox climbed up from the scholar's lap, holding his sleeve in his mouth and would not let go until Gu Xiyong went to bed.
Really couldn't shirk it, so Gu Xiyong had no choice but to take off his coat and lie down on the bed, the little fox nestled comfortably in his arms, warm and warm, like a small stove.
Gu Xiyong had no brothers and sisters. After his parents passed away, there was only one nanny to take care of him. Later, the nanny had her own grandson, and when she was old, she resigned and went home to take care of her. He was the only one left in the family.
Although the house is not big, it feels a bit empty for him to live alone, because he has lived alone for five or six years, and he doesn't feel hard afterward.
Now that he finally has a little popularity, Gu Xiyong is happy no matter whether he is a man or a monster.
Being with someone is better than being alone.He has been waiting for such a person for too long.
It's just that every time I see the fox demon transformed into a fox, I always feel very familiar, but I try my best to remember it, but I have a terrible headache, and I can't remember anything.
Gu Xiyong didn't want to think about it anymore, hugged the little fox, and soon fell into a deep sleep.
So from that day on, the fox demon Qi Jin officially lived in Gu Xiyong's house.Not only did he lie to eat and drink every day, but he also harassed Gu Xiyong, preventing him from reading and writing.Just in time for Gu Xiyong to stay at home every day instead of going to a private school, the fox demon feels happy and takes pleasure in tossing scholars every day.
Instruct the scholar to buy him small snacks from Liufangzhai in the east of the city, and cook for him.Every time the scholar pulled him to study, he would ignore him listlessly. If he forced him to study, he would turn into his original form, lying lazily on the scholar's lap, not wanting to move.
Foxes don't hibernate, and they won't bother to move in winter.Under Gu Xiyong's care, the fox demon Qi Jin became more rounded day by day, and even the fox's fur was a little shiny.
In this way, New Year's Eve arrived in a blink of an eye.
New Year's Eve is the most important festival of the year. Before dawn in the morning, Gu Xiyong took the fox to worship the ancestors first, and then went to the graves of his parents in the suburbs to worship, and talked about what happened this year.
The winter this year was extremely cold, and when Gu Xiyong walked back, it began to snow again.His parents' graves are located in the mountains on the outskirts of the city, in a remote location, making it difficult to travel when it snows.The previous snow hadn't melted yet, and new snow covered it again. Before walking more than ten steps, Gu Xiyong fell two big somersaults, and because of this, he was laughed at by the fox demon for a long time.
It was almost noon when one person and one fox entered the house, had a quick meal at noon, and started making dumplings in the afternoon.Gu Xiyong's skill in making dumplings was mediocre, while the fox demon Qi Jin's dumpling making was so horrible that he almost wanted to take his face off to prevent the fox demon from intervening.
He would still be angry if the fox demon was not allowed to intervene. Gu Xiyong had no choice but to tear off a ball of dough for the fox demon to play with.
After finally making the dumplings, they began to cook in the pot, but the fox demon was afraid of the heat and refused to turn on the fire.Gu Xiyong was willing to indulge him, so he asked him to rest aside.
Gu Xiyong added something to those balls of dough that had been kneaded by the fox demon, and made them into small fox-shaped buns, with a layer of brown syrup on the top, almost exactly the same as the original fox demon.
After steaming, it was shiny, sweet and delicious, and the fox demon was very satisfied. After eating the New Year's Eve dinner with the scholar, he lazily lay on the bed and asked the scholar to read him from the scriptures.
Tonight is about a snake demon who was saved by a scholar who was studying hard in the mountains, and he promised to repay his benefactor with his body.So the two decided to spend their lives privately, to be a pair of wild mandarin ducks in the mountains...
Before the story book was finished, the fox demon became impatient, snatched the story book, and begged Gu Xiyong to peel melon seeds for him to eat.
The night was dark, and every household outside set off firecrackers and fireworks to celebrate the arrival of the new year.
While peeling melon seeds, Gu Xiyong glanced at the fox demon beside him from the corner of his eye.For some reason, the fox demon, who couldn't hide his thoughts on weekdays, was depressed and refused to speak.
This made Gu Xiyong very unaccustomed, and quickly peeled a large handful of melon seeds for the fox demon.I am used to seeing the fox demon lively on weekdays, but Gu Xiyong feels uncomfortable when he occasionally looks listless for a day.
"Gu Xiyong." The fox demon lay on the scholar with a serious face.It's just that he usually has a playful smile on his face, but when he pretends to be serious, he can't be serious, Gu Xiyong looks like he wants to laugh.
But Gu Xiyong couldn't laugh at the next sentence.
"Now I know what it means to make a promise with your body." The fox demon Qi Jin looked into the eyes of the person in front of him with burning eyes, "I would like to make a promise with my body, but I don't know if you will agree."
